Since John Kindervag proposed the zero-trust concept in 2010, “Never Trust, Always Verify” has become the global cybersecurity mainstream. National institute of cyber security under Ministry of Digital Affairs in Taiwan has required government agencies to gradually implement the three core components of the zero-trust architecture—identity authentication, device authentication, and trust inference—since 2022. The institute actively promotes vendors to comply with these core components to ensure the implementation of cybersecurity policies, allowing Taiwan to align with international standards and maintain a leading position in the cybersecurity field. Lydsec is one of the few vendors in Taiwan certified by the institute to participate in government digital transformation projects. The Keypasco authentication solution is one of only two products in Taiwan that have passed the first phase of identity authentication and the second phase of device authentication of the zero-trust certification by the institute. Lydsec will soon launch the AI Risk Management and Assessment solution (Contextual AI Risk Assessment) to facilitate seamless integration, maintenance, and management for customers deploying zero-trust solutions.
This year’s Keypasco Summit, themed “The Leading Innovation, Global presence,” showcased Lydsec’s six major identity governance and authentication solutions developed in-house. In addition to the well-known Keypasco FIDO, Keypasco Platform, Keypasco Zero Trust Network Access, and Keypasco Enterprise solutions, the summit also introduced new services under Keypasco+, including the “KeypascoID Federated Single Sign-On (SSO) Platform Service” and the “Keypasco Proximity” for guests to experience. “Continuous innovation, using the most advanced feasible technology to ensure customer information security, and enhancing productivity to strengthen customer competitiveness” is Lydsec Digital Technology’s eternal corporate vision!
